Thurs Dec 11th, 20.00 KO.

You'd imagine there'll be some rotation for this one.

Looks good to me. Maybe Onana for Kamara as he's had fewer minutes recently I think.

A lesser spotted Elliot on the pitch?

How important is finishing top two for us? Does it really make much of a difference seeing the oppo in the first knockout round is likely not heavyweight?

Think you play the second leg of every round before the final at home.

So, not the end of the world if we don't. But certainly an advantage if we can get it.

Finishing top 2 means you get home fixtures in the 2nd leg all the way to the final assuming you get there.

With our home record we'd definitely prefer being home second in every round. Last season showed how big a difference it made against PSG.

Not the most convincing example, to be honest! :)
